If you go with the horseshoe theory then the far left is barely distinguishable from the far right. The only thing that changes really is the framing of the issue and the motivation.

If you're looking at people being criticised because they're not writing characters of their own skin colour or sexuality, or 'staying in their lane' with their culture, or because their own experiences don't conform to some expectation (like the author criticised for describing slavery but not how it was in the US), then you're still looking at segregation and oppression, but approaching it in a way that is falsely empowering. It is still massively authoritarian and oppressive and extreme, no matter how virtuous people think the left wing is, and it's certainly not liberal. There's just nothing good about being at the extreme end of anything.

But that aside, and with the crowds on twitter, I just wonder what it will take for people like that to be happy, and not perpetually angry. So much aggression couched in seemingly kind language.
Power usage follows directly from the 5nm process.
"... programming is an art form, whose real value can only be appreciated by another versed in the same arcane art; there are lovely gems and brilliant coups hidden from human view and admiration, sometimes forever, by the very nature of the process.

Margin is a bit of a nebulous concept.

Computers can help bring down costs. Competition can help force companies to pass on those savings.

(Though even in the absence of competition, there is some incentive to lower prices in order to increase volume. But it's much weaker. See eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopoly_profit)

The problem with going to a startup is it is kind of like going from the frying pan into the fire. As someone who has worked in both academia and industry, while academia and its pursuit of publications leads to bad behavior, industry and its pursuit of money is even more unprincipled. While it might not be that hard to fool peer reviewers with nonsense, it is way easier to fool venture capitalists, who often know no science and and are just listening for the hot buzzwords.

I don't want electron everything. I prefer native FOSS everything.

Electron is actually the property of Microsoft (via GitHub [0]). So at least for Office there are no extra parties. And again, no I don't want it, but I want app parity with Windows so my kids school can't force me to put Windows on my machines. And no O365 in the browser is not ok, it offers a very poor experience imo. Just using the tab key in Excel online is maddening, although I expect one could get used to, I don't wish it upon my kids.

I work with several programming languages, its easier to make the problem language agnostic.
"A toy example: if you happen to have 2 products that are the same price you still wouldn't want to combine them into one constant value."

A more common example, take an online clothes store. They only sell shirts and trousers (pants - :]). It's a really simple app. Obviously, I'm skimming a great deal here, but each product category is described by the following properties:

- Shirts
-- Price
-- Size
-- Colour

- Trousers (Pants - :])
-- Price
-- Size
-- Colour
-- Length

What the DRY principle generally addresses, is this basic idea.
My instinct would be to create an abstract class called Clothing:

- Clothing
-- Price
-- Size
-- Colour

Trousers (Pants - :]), for me, would definitely be an extension of Clothing.
But until my suppliers can furnish me with Dresses, T-shirts, Scarves, etc, I would not be too concerned about even creating a separate Shirt class, but probably would.

What I've since found through experience however, is that not everyone thinks this way. For some people, each product category would have absolutely have to have it's own wholly encapsulated class in this situation. I can see the problem such an approach attempts to head off, but until the problem actually exists, I believe this pattern makes the development process painfully inefficient, and harder to maintain.

It's interesting to me, because while it seems like 'one of those' arguments, it's somewhat more impactful than 'tabs vs spaces'.
I think it depends on your field a little. I did not see this during my years in particle physics...

That's a strange way to put it.

Alternatively, 1 hectare ~= 2.5 acres

I'm ignorant of the movie industry. Are you also saying that movies that were 100% digital capture (e.g. RED CINEMA digital cameras) are also "printed" to film stock to be archived long term?

> That's always fun finding dumb things you posted online as a kid.

The older I get, the more I understand the push for a right to be forgotten. I wish that (most?) public sites had some kind of filter where things disappeared. There is no reason why comments made as a kid should follow you forever. Or, if not entirely removed, then maybe the authorship masked.

I mean, if bad decisions fall off your credit report after 7 years, why shouldn’t the stupid tweet you posted 7 years ago? This is especially true for accounts where the person was under 18 at the time.

> I've moved to Guile as my small scripting language.

I have been using Lua as an alternative to Python. It's much closer to my ideal level of language complexity - and I think overall it's better designed than Python, although it's certainly not perfect. The implementation of the interpreter is significantly better as well.
It probably isn't as user friendly as you'd want, but you can reload the playlist by firing commands at a socket. See the "JSON IPC" section in the mpv man page, and specifically the load* commands. jo¹ and socat² are probably the simplest way to use it if you're not looking for heavy scripting.

The scriptability of mpv is really nice if you're the sort of person who likes building your perfect environment, and also a huge pit of addictive time sinks. </warning>

There is less incentive to do work when your output is the same as those who work twice (or many times more) as much. When you watch your coworkers fumble through constant framework and trendy tool bullshit instead of actually solving for the business requirements you really want to do the right thing and bypass the stupidity to deliver actual results back to the business. Doing that, however, often results in retribution, so you just sit there not doing work.
So you internalized the censorship? Sadly pragmatic lesson there.

When people say "designed to be disposable" they don't mean reuse is not possible - just not likely, because a thing wears out quickly, or is a hassle to give someone else. Former means there's not much of a second-hand market, the latter means that even giving away for free is too much work compared to just dumping it.

I'm very much surprised about the amount of comments here on HN (today and in many previous discussions) that claim to reuse IKEA furniture; it's completely contrary to my experience. My opinion of IKEA furniture is that it's single-assembly - trying to break it apart irreparably destroys it.

I conclude there must be either high variance in IKEA's production quality, or we're comparing apples to oranges. Maybe some IKEA products have more reassembly potential than others. Someone mentioned an office chair elsewhere in the thread - yeah, that obviously can last years and be moved, because it's made of metal and hard plastics. But most IKEA furniture I experienced is made of dried toilet paper glued with formaldehyde^W^W^W^W^W^Wmedium-density fibreboard and assembles destructively.
> The technology node (also process node, process technology or simply node) refers to a specific semiconductor manufacturing process and its design rules. Different nodes often imply different circuit generations and architectures. Generally, the smaller the technology node means the smaller the feature size, producing smaller transistors which are both faster and more power-efficient. Historically, the process node name referred to a number of different features of a transistor including the gate length as well as M1 half-pitch. Most recently, due to various marketing and discrepancies among foundries, the number itself has lost the exact meaning it once held. Recent technology nodes such as 22 nm, 16 nm, 14 nm, and 10 nm refer purely to a specific generation of chips made in a particular technology. It does not correspond to any gate length or half pitch. Nevertheless, the name convention has stuck and it's what the leading foundries call their nodes.

Why Reality Is Strange
At some basic level, banks do lend out their savers deposits.

The multiplier effect comes about because after the loan the bank's debtors obviously have money, but also the depositors treat their (loaned out!) deposits as if they were money. (And the depositors usually don't take out the loans as cash, but as deposits with some bank or another.)

There's some complications with regulation, central bank reserves etc. But fundamentally, banks lend out deposits.
Not sure that I do. I think, there is subtext which may not translate across cultural boundaries. The smiley seems to indicate a joke.

In my experience, working part-time means getting paid only the proportional amount for the benefit of only having to be present for that part, while at the same time having to deliver the same output as the full-time.
Well that goes for all couches, ikea or not, doesn't it? That wasn't the question here.

It turns out: securing on network services is a PITA that school network admins don't need more of; developing good ones is expensive and is best outsourced to a SaaS; on network/on device resources need more extensive vetting than web resources; on network/device resources take days to try out and roll out with cooperation of the understaffed IT team, web resources take one class and a link.

And add to that the number of custom software are many times more than most things in real life. Nobody will asks for their BMW to transport a cow, or for their BMW to connect / communicate with other's Mercedes.

But we often asked for accounting app to able to handle employee's payroll and paid leaves.

Then with that many demand for custom software, we also got many times software manufacturer than car manufacturer. Inexperienced manufacturer (programmer) will make development even slower. Not to mention that the client even don't know what they want.

I had the 'luck' of being a research assistant at a prestigious academic collaboration involving multiple equally prestigious universities. This was in my bachelor years, and I still hadn't decided whether to pursue a career in academia or elsewhere.

While the experience day to day was definitely fun, it destroyed any desire I had of entering the field. A lot of politics, a lot of statistically suspect stuff (even to me, in my third year of a bachelor), and a lot of busiwork.

After that experience I went into web development (full-stack). What I like about it is that even though there IS politics, even though there IS taking shortcuts, and god forgive me for some of the code I delivered, in the end whatever I work on has to actually do the thing it's supposed to do. It doesn't remove the aforementioned problems, but it grounds everything in a way that is mostly acceptable to me.

As frustrating as it can be to build some convoluted web app that feels like it's held together by scotch tape, it's nice to know that it eventually has to do whatever the client asks for, however flawed.
That's an interesting definition. I'm not sure it's useful.

The agency president tweeted in now-deleted tweets that Colleen was fired for using conservative platforms and that they do not condone this activity. Followed by an apology for any offence caused.

If there was further evidence she did not feel the need to disclose further. However it does appear that mentioning the association was enough justification.

Also the complaints that were aired didn't provide any further evidence other than the fact that she was on the platform. Again only providing the association as the source of the concern.

How do we get from that to a very public firing over a space of a few hours? More evidence may come to light but there are several things very problematic about this.
> Americans not knowing (or not caring) and being unwilling to spend money to make it less fragile.

I have no meaningful influence on my ISP's network backbone. I don't even have a real choice in ISP so it's not like I can go to someone else, and they know it.

I currently have 500mbit/sec service from my cable company and the only other options are ~50mbit/sec 4G or Frontier DSL that claims 24mbit/sec while rarely syncing beyond 8. Those aren't actual alternatives. If I want to have a connection that can properly support a household full of gamers and streamers, I'm stuck with this unless I want to add another zero or two to my monthly bill for a dedicated fiber line.

This is the best case scenario for the majority of the US. One cable company that's mostly decent, one shitty DSL provider, and a few wireless services that have very limited spectrum and data caps. Almost no one in this country has true competition in wired broadband unless they have a municipal fiber service or are lucky enough to be in one of the few cities that Google dumped money in to.

This is my ErgoDash layout. I have one less bottom-row key than the Moonlander, so I have combined PgDn/LeftAlt and ←/RightAlt onto single keys. I would uncombine these if I had the extra key, as I occasionally press Alt when I intend to press ←, but am too slow.

I also have Enter/Ctrl as a single key, but it's very rare for this to do the wrong thing.
